While the Charge HR is a great device I would absolutely NOT recommend buying this. There is a serious design flaw where the band separates from the tracker which cannot be fixed. If you want a Fitbit, do yourself a favor and get one with interchangeable bands. The new Charge 2 looks great and has more features. If you buy this it won't last.

coldfistsI have a Charge HR with the exact same problem. Since I bought it on eBay, it wasn't eligible for the warranty, so no joy there. That said, I'm looking for one with interchangeable bands.

coldfistsI've gone through four Charge HRs in a year. I bought one and got the other three as warranty replacements (Fitbit was great to deal with). Three of them had issues with the band as shown and one rebooted every time I tried to connect to it (sync) via Bluetooth. When my last one started to come apart, I ended up buying a used Blaze off a friend. I am much happier with the Blaze.

coldfistsI had the same problem with the bands. I've gone through 4 of them after replacements. None of them lasted more than 4 months before the band started coming off. I'm still using the last one, but with a bunch of super glue holding it together ( doesn't look great ).
